Slaughtering the Goat

This is not my first experience in goat slaughtering. I did it when I visited Max and his family in December last year. It is a really interesting thing and I am going to have to get used to it anyway. The second night in the North, we slaughtered a goat to eat for the next week. Goat's meat has really grown on me and this goat had some good meat! It is weird how easily the skin comes away from the meat/muscle. I don't really like the whole thing but it doesn't really bother me like I thought it would. Just seems like a neccassary part of life. I am becoming a real African woman! Ha ha!
